Hello!

My name is Roman Klaudo, I am a musician, sound artist, new media artist and engineer. I love all things related to music and sound, so I like to create not only music, but also musical instruments - guitars, modular synthesizers, experimental devices...

Roman was born in St. Petersburg, Russia into a dynasty of engineers involved in the development of spacecraft. Dad worked on the electronics of the Soviet space shuttle Buran, and grandfather was the head of the gas-dynamic testing laboratory of rocket engines.

Creating all sorts of complicated things has always been a special passion, and the space sphere was perfect for it. At university, Roman became interested in jazz and jazz music, and after graduating and working in the comic industry, he continued his musical education and started experimenting with musical instruments.

While studying at the Department of Art&Science at ITMO University, in addition to a whole new intellectual world, he met a huge number of talented people who encouraged him to expand his interests, and Roman became interested in neurointerfaces and deep neural networks. He continues to do so to this day in the context of musical experiments.
